20 vs 21

I just picked up my truck and it is amazing! Carbon black with black interior. My issue is that I ordered it with the factory 21in rims. It arrived with the 20s. I drive a lot in the downtown Boston area where the roads are terrible. I bought the wheel and tire package as well. My question is: should I stick with the 20s in hopes that I will have fewer issues with bent rims and flat tires? Or should I go back and have the dealer get the 21s that were supposed to come on the truck? Thoughts?

For NE roads I'd say keep the 20's.

I will go with the 21" wheels since you already have the wheel and tire package. Please post pics. Enjoy it in good health

I live on Cape Cod, and commute into Boston often, and I went with with 21" rims. Like POBA said, if you've got the wheel and tire package, get the 21" rims you ordered the car with.
